    Black 5 + 11 (no diesel). About 5L at Hoghton but going well, plenty of exhaust on a cool drizzly morning.

    Inclement weather again as LMS 5MT Class 4-6-0 'The Sherwood Forester' works 'The Fellsman' rail tour through Horton in Ribblesdale Station

    A splash of sunshine just at the right moment sees LMS 5MT Class 4-6-0 No. 45231 'The Sherwood Forester' working away from Crosby Garrett with the return 'Fellsman'
